Premier League stars set to be interviewed after they're substituted next season as part of in-game TV revolution
PREMIER LEAGUE stars face being interviewed soon after they are subbed next season. Dressing-room cameras will also be allowed but NOT during team talks. 1 A number of broadcasting changes were agreed by clubs at the Prem's June annual meeting. But extra access will only be in place for TWO home games per club. Sky Sports will show 215 Prem games, part of a new four-year contract worth £6.7billion. There will be dressing-room access, a half-time player interview or a chat with a substituted player from next season. Last season saw half-time player interviews trialled and some fans were not receptive to the introduction. There will also be limitations in place to prevent all the changes from occurring at the same time. But it is expected there will be dressing-room access and player interviews at two home games for all 20 Prem clubs. Another change sees cameramen will be allowed to enter the field of play to capture player celebrations. Sky Sports' expansion will see every Sunday 2pm match broadcast for the first time ever. And six of the opening round of Prem matches will be shown on TV after Nottingham Forest vs Brentford was moved.

Man Utd transfer news LIVE: Mbeumo CHOOSES United over Spurs, Gyokeres BOOST, Ndidi eyed as clause emerges
Red alert Liverpool claim they now rival Manchester United with one billion fans worldwide while becoming the most watched club in the Premier League. Old Trafford part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe boasted that the Red Devils were followed by that staggering global number as he launched plans to build a new £2billion stadium in March. But Anfield chairman Tom Werner has the figures to prove that his 'relentless' club not only finished top in the title race last season but also left their bitter rivals for dead in the TV viewing stakes as well. He insisted: 'We are very aware of the global power of Liverpool. The club's reach around the world is by far the strongest in the Premier League. 'We're the only Premier League club to surpass 500million views on television [by March 2025 from August last season]. 'Last season on social media we generated 1.7 billion engagements. That's not unique engagements, but it's still a huge number. 'Many Americans still don't appreciate the global power of football but over the next ten years I think the Premier League is going to be huge in the US. 'We think there could now be as many as a billion people around the world who follow Liverpool. 'There is a special connection with the fans. You feel it at the games at Anfield, when they start to sing You'll Never Walk Alone. It's deep and emotional.'
